instances of the
new lesson. Grammatical signals are writing devices such as transitional devices,
connectors, determiners, and repetitions that are used to maintain text
coherence.

Pattern of idea development refers to the structure of writing on how

the ideas are being presented.

Four of the commonly used patterns of idea development, these are the
general to particular, cause and effect, claim counterclaim,and problem-
solution. Let us explore them and their appropriate grammatical signals.

A. General to Particular
This pattern of idea development discusses the general topic by
presenting specific details that support the topic.

Example:

These are the other grammatical signals that can be used for general to
particular pattern of idea development:
also, for example, as an example, in addition, in addition to, for
instance, examples of these, first, second, third, next, on one hand, and
on the other hand.

B. Cause and Effect

This pattern of idea development explains the causes or the effects of
something. When a writer presents reasons, he or she is explaining the
causes. When a writer explains the results, he or she isexplaining the
effects.
These are the other grammatical signals that can be used for cause and
effect pattern of idea development:
Cause: if, for, since, due to, because, owing to, because of, one cause,
and resulting from
Effect: so, thus, hence, then, therefore, as a result, in effect, as
consequence, consequently, leads to, one of the effects is, and that is why

C. Claim and Counterclaim

This pattern of idea development refers to the structure of presenting a
side of an issue in an argumentative manner. A claim is the writer’s
stand on a topic supported by evidences and logical reasoning. Also, the
writer presents the counterclaim or the opposite stand of an issue to
disprove it through evidences and logical reasoning.

Here are the other transitional devices that can be used for claim
counterclaim pattern of idea development:
however, nevertheless, on one hand, on the other hand, admittedly, some
people say, some may say, of course, nevertheless, and but not only that.

D. Problem-Solution
This pattern of idea development is used when a writer identifies a
problem and addresses it by presenting one or more solutions. A problem
refers to the unsatisfactory situation that causes troubles or difficulties. A
solution on the other hand, refers to the ways in solving or minimizing
the problem.
 Here are the grammatical signals to be used for problem-solution pattern
of idea development:
because, cause, since, as a result, in order to, and so that, as a solution,
and one way.

Stories can be commonly presented in print, audio, and audio-visual

format.
1. _________ written in books is a form of print format. It gives the
readers more
information about the characters and the plot. 2. _________, stories that
are told through radios or podcasts are examples of audio format. They
enable the listeners to freely create different mental pictures of the
characters and scenes as they listen
to the storylines. 3. __________, movies and TV series shown in cinema
or televisions are examples of audio-visual format. 4.____________,
regardless of the format, all of them can equally bring entertainment to
people.

Mastery your community. Then, write at least a five-sentence paragraph about
your chosen issue using your preferred pattern of idea development.
Make sure to use appropriate grammatical signals for your chosen
pattern. A rubric below is provided as your guide.

V. Identifying the Pattern
EVALUATING Directions: Identify the pattern used in the following paragraphs. Write
LEARNING your answers in a separate sheet of paper.

Research refers to a logical and systematic search for new and useful
information on a certain topic. Specifically, it can be classified into two
main types. The first type is the basic research. It deals with the
investigation on basic principles and reasons for the occurrence of a
certain phenomenon or process. Applied research is another type that
solves certain problems through using accepted theories. Also, it tries to
explore how things can be changed. These two types of research are used
in the academic and scholarly fields.
1. Pattern Used: _________________________________________

Road accidents happen due to several reasons. One reason is the

carelessness of drivers. Some drivers ignore traffic rules and warning
signals. They also resist wearing seat belts. Some of them are even drunk
while driving. Next reason is the weather conditions. During a hot
weather, drivers are prone to have high blood pressure or heat stroke
which lead to road accidents. Meanwhile, during rainy seasons when the
road is wet or slippery, drivers tend to lose control which lead to
vehicular accidents. Another reason is the traffic jam. When there are too
many vehicles, some drivers easily panic, get more nervous, and become
error-prone. As a result, traffic accidents happen. To sum up,
carelessness, weather conditions, and traffic jams are common reasons of
road accidents.
2. Pattern Used: __________________________________________

Educating our children to take care and protect the environment by

saving trees is a lifetime mission. It is important for us and our children
to understand that trees do so much for our environment. Trees provide
us clean air, food, paper, and medicines. They also give shelter to
humans and animals. Can you imagine a world without trees? With this,
I urge you to join me in making this world a better, greener, cleaner
place for our children and the future generations.
3. Pattern Used: ___________________________________________

There are many ways to lessen the amount of household wastes. First,
turn away from single-use plastics. You can do this by bringing your
own reusable containers and ask restaurants to use them in packing your
food. Next, use eco-bags when buying in grocery stores. This can
minimize the use of plastic cellophanes. Another way is by sorting your
garbage. Just get any trash receptacles and follow the proper sorting
procedures. Separate plastic bottles and metal wastes from fruits and
vegetable scraps. For plastic and metal waste, clean them and place them
in separate
bins. Once the recyclable bins are filled up, take them to your local
recycling centers. These are some of the ways to reduce the amount of
wastes.
4. Pattern Used: ____________________________________________

There are those who believe that technology makes us less creative.
They strongly claim that cellphones, computers, and other gadgets make
us lazy and dependent. Also, they say that we don’t have to think or
create for ourselves. However, the truth is thesem technologies have
different features that offer multiple creative outlets. We can edit videos,
 design webpage, make short films, create graphic arts, and compose web
novels. Technology brings out people’s creativity in this new age.
